...So I'm retired with a nice income. I don't really have to live off the paintings, but I do have a few galleries interested, so I am going to try and make some extra money with them... The Fine Art biz is very different from commercial illustration or gaming work. There is virtually no connection between the two, so I'm essentially starting over._________________HonePie.comtumblr blogdigtal art

just it.. i forgot.. i call you lucky haha kidding.. for me doing oil painting is real luxury.. i want have plenty of time .. i hope the time comes sometimes.. doing analog work is almost meditative_________________out

You have some things that takes up attention though, I hope it is ok with a paintover? In the first piece it is detail in the low middle section, which to me consumes attention which makes the viewer look less at the trees.
I really love the colors and mood.
ah enough rambling, here's the overpaint:

Edit, ok I took the overpaint down since you saw it eyewoo. Not sure about hotlink policy from my webprovider either.....

I think I spent about a week on it, painting several hours a day. I have other things I work on during the day... frame making, internet interaction, etc._________________HonePie.comtumblr blogdigtal art

these are great eyewoo! I like the progression shot best, the ones in the middle look so interesting with a little underpaint peaking through,and the finished is very powerful with the warm and cool meeting like that

Hi, Eyewoo! I really like your oil paintings. All of them are excellent. My favorite is the first painting in your lone tree series. I find the color so soothing and the details are well done. I also appreciate that you posted the stages of development of some of your works. They show how meticulous one can get when it comes to painting. By the way, that thrift store lady is really lucky to receive such kind of appreciation gift. Thanks for sharing all these._________________John Briner Art
